Setting up for the Cycle Road Racing

The last few days have been busy as we moved the cycling team from the Velodrome to the Road Racing base at Brands Hatch Formula One circuit in Kent.  Not without incident, we spent a lot of time at Evans Cycles in Canary Wharf securing the purchase of a replacement bike. Not as easy a process as it could have been!

I have been down in the pits with the team cycle car for much of the time and those who have been following from the begining of the Olympics will know what a cycle car look like!

Brands Hatch is a wonderful venue and the infrastructure and support for the Gamesmakers excellent. It is a large site and distance between functional areas a long way.
